Your Home, Built Right the First Time

You’re tired of contractors who disappear mid-project or cut corners you’ll pay for later. When you work with a licensed general contractor who actually shows up and does what they promise, your renovation becomes an investment instead of a headache.

Your kitchen becomes the space where your family actually wants to gather. Your bathroom transforms from outdated and cramped to a retreat you look forward to using every day. Your deck becomes the outdoor living space that finally makes sense for how you actually live.

The difference isn’t just in how it looks when we’re done. It’s in how it performs five years from now, how it adds to your home’s value, and how you never have to worry about whether the work was done right.

Residential Construction Process

No Surprises, No Runarounds, No Drama

Your project starts with an honest conversation about what you want, what’s realistic, and what it’ll cost. No high-pressure sales tactics or estimates that magically increase once work begins.

Before any work starts, you’ll have a clear timeline, detailed scope, and written warranty information. As licensed contractors, we pull proper permits and handle inspections so you don’t have to worry about code compliance or future sale issues.

During construction, you’ll get regular updates and direct communication about progress, any issues that come up, and what happens next. The job isn’t finished until you’re satisfied with the work and understand how to maintain what was built.

Kitchens, Bathrooms, and Decks Done Right

We focus on three areas where quality makes the biggest difference in your daily life and home value. Kitchen renovations handle everything from cabinet installation to electrical and plumbing updates that bring older North End homes up to modern standards.

Bathroom projects range from simple updates to complete overhauls, addressing common issues like poor ventilation, outdated plumbing, and wasted space that plague many local homes. Every bathroom renovation includes proper waterproofing and ventilation to prevent the moisture problems that can cost thousands down the road.

Deck construction and renovation takes advantage of the Pacific Northwest’s outdoor lifestyle, using materials and techniques that handle local weather conditions. Whether you’re replacing a rotting deck or building new outdoor living space, our focus stays on safety, durability, and designs that actually work for how you use your outdoor space.

How do I know if a general contractor is properly licensed in Washington?

Every legitimate general contractor in Washington must have a current license through the Department of Labor & Industries. You can verify any contractor’s license status, bond information, and complaint history on the L&I website using their business name or license number. Licensed contractors are required to carry liability insurance and post a bond that protects you if something goes wrong. Always ask to see proof of licensing and insurance before signing any contract, and never work with someone who can’t provide current documentation.
Handymen can legally work on projects under $1,000 in Washington, but anything larger requires a licensed contractor. General contractors have passed state exams, carry required insurance and bonding, and can pull permits for electrical, plumbing, and structural work. They’re also legally responsible for code compliance and warranty issues. If your kitchen, bathroom, or deck project involves moving walls, updating electrical, or significant plumbing work, you need a licensed general contractor. The licensing requirement exists to protect homeowners from substandard work and ensure someone is accountable if problems arise.
Kitchen renovations typically take 3-6 weeks depending on the scope, while bathroom projects usually run 2-4 weeks. The timeline depends on whether you’re doing a simple refresh or gutting everything down to the studs. Permit approval, material delivery delays, and discovering unexpected issues like old plumbing or electrical problems can add time. A realistic contractor will build buffer time into the schedule and communicate any delays immediately. The key is getting a detailed timeline upfront that accounts for inspections, material lead times, and the reality that older North End homes sometimes surprise you once walls come down.
Deck costs vary widely based on size, materials, and complexity, but expect $25-50 per square foot for quality construction using durable materials suited to local weather. Pressure-treated lumber costs less upfront but requires more maintenance, while composite materials cost more initially but last longer with minimal upkeep. Factors that increase cost include complex designs, multiple levels, built-in seating, and dealing with sloped lots common in North End neighborhoods. Always get detailed written estimates that specify materials, labor, permits, and timeline. The cheapest bid often means corners will be cut on materials or structural elements you can’t see but will pay for later.
Most kitchen and bathroom renovations require permits, especially if you’re moving plumbing, adding electrical circuits, or removing walls. Even replacing a water heater or adding new outlets typically requires permits and inspections. Your contractor should handle permit applications and scheduling inspections – if they suggest skipping permits to save money, find someone else. Unpermitted work can cause problems when you sell your home, void insurance claims, and create safety hazards. The permit process ensures work meets current codes and gets properly inspected. It’s not bureaucratic red tape; it’s protection for your family and your investment.
Reputable contractors provide written warranties covering both materials and workmanship, typically one year minimum for labor and longer for major components. Material warranties come from manufacturers and vary by product – some deck materials carry 20+ year warranties while fixtures might have 5-10 years. Your contractor should clearly explain what’s covered, what’s not, and how to handle warranty issues. Be wary of contractors who don’t offer written warranties or seem vague about standing behind their work. A solid warranty shows the contractor expects their work to last and is willing to fix problems that arise from poor workmanship.
